Why java Don't Support Multiple interitence

Answer

There is a big reason behind that(java does not support
multiple inheritance). Please go through the following
example.

1. Assume that java is supporting multiple inheritance

class A {

void m1() {
// implement method
}
}

class B {
void m1() {
// implement method
}
}
//As for the assumption (1) the following code will compile

class C extends A,B {

public static void main( String s[]) {

C c = new C();
c.m1();
}
}

Note : In main method i am calling c.m1() method In this
situation which super class m1 method has to call (from A
or B) JVM will confuse.

So our assumtion(1) is wrong .

This is the reason why java does not support multple
inheritance through classes.

Note : This same cocept is applicable for classes.
